Background Information about DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) Solutions:

The environmental compatibility of diesel engines as compared to gasoline engines is a matter of great dispute in the discussion about the cause of and measures against anthropogenic climate change. While the combustion of gasoline produces more greenhouse gas CO2, diesel engines generally exhaust more nitrogen oxides. The nitrogen oxide molecules NO and NO2, which are included in the generic term NOX, are relevant for air pollution as they cause smog and acid rain in high concentrations and contribute to the depletion of the ozone layer. Hence, there are ambitions to reduce the NOX exhaust in diesel engines on different levels.

A promising approach towards reducing emissions in diesel engines is the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx. And this is now possible thanks to a reaction with the molecule of urea that is introduced into the exhaust by the means of a 32% urea solution in water (AUS 32). An example for an AUS 32 fluid is the AdBlue® solution. AdBlue® is a registered trademark of the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA).
